Acute Effects of HIIT and SSMIT on Intraocular Pressure Among Sedentary Individuals
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Purpose to study the acute effects of both forms of aerobic exercise (HIIT and SSMIT) on intraocular pressure among healthy sedentary individuals

Detailed Description
40 participants were recruited and divided into 2 groups. Each group performed 2 exercise protocols with a 4 day washout period between them.
The intraocular pressure was measured before the exercise and after the exercise in 5 minute periods up until 30 minutes post exercise.
The intraocular pressure was measured using a handheld rebound tonometer.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Changes in intraocular pressure [30 minutes]
changes in intraocular pressure before and after exervcise
Secondary Outcome Measures
- compare which form of exercise (HIIT & SSMIT) is superior in reducing intraocular pressure [30 days]
difference in intraocular pressure reduction observed between each exercise protocol
